Kevin will be left with 2 ounces of mixed nuts in the can

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total nuts = 16 ounces

As Kevin gave 1/2 of the nuts to his sister, he will be left with

= \frac{1}{2} * 16\\= 8

He is left with 8 ounces of mixed nuts

The he eats 3/4 of the remaining

= \frac{3}{4} * 8 \\= 6\ ounces

so he is left with 8 - 6 = 2 ounces of mixed nuts

Hence

Kevin will be left with 2 ounces of mixed nuts in the can

For each pair figures, find the ratio of the area of the first figure to the area of the second. 14mm 7mm
Paraphin [41]

The ratio of the area of the <u>first figure</u> to the area of the <u>second figure</u> is 4:1

<h3>Ratio of the areas of similar figures </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the ratio of the area of the<u> first figure</u> to the area of the <u>second figure</u>

<u />

The two figures are similar

From one of the theorems for similar polygons, we have that

If the scale factor of the sides of <u>two similar polygons</u> is m/n then the ratio of the areas is (m/n)²

Let the base length of the first figure be ,m = 14 mm

and the base length of the second figure be, n = 7 mm

∴ The ratio of their areas will be

(\frac{14 \ mm}{7 \ mm})^{2}

= \frac{196 \ mm^{2} }{49\ mm^{2} }

=\frac{4}{1}

= 4:1

Hence, the ratio of the area of the <u>first figure</u> to the area of the <u>second figure</u> is 4:1
